Whether you've been a menstrual Cup user for years or you're new to cups - The Queen Cup is an amazing product. It's a reusable, bell-shaped device that is inserted into the vagina to create a physical barrier against the vaginal canal, preventing menstrual fluids from leaking out. Instead of absorbing menstrual fluid, the cup provides a sink for it to collect in.
SAFE & NON-ALLERGIC: It's made with a non-allergenic, medical-grade silicone formula designed to be both gentle and super comfortable for those with bladder sensitivity, cramping, or discomfort with firmer cups. The Queen Cup doesn’t contain any harsh chemicals, latex, or bleach – unlike tampons – making them a great option for women with allergies to these ingredients!
ECO-FRIENDLY: Menstrual cups are a safe, eco-friendly option for managing your period. They eliminate the need for reusable or disposable pads and tampons, thereby reducing waste from those products as well as from those created from fossil fuels for their production.
MORE FREEDOM: Say goodbye to leaks and hello to freedom! The Queen Cup helps you to feel more in control by giving you the freedom to wear your favorite clothes, go about your day as usual, and do what you love without worrying about your period.
Instructions
If you can put in a tampon, you should find it relatively easy to insert a menstrual cup. Just follow these steps to use a cup:
- Wash your hands thoroughly.
- Apply water or water-based lube to the rim of the cup.
- Tightly fold the menstrual cup in half, holding it in one hand with the rim facing up.
- Insert the cup, rim up, into your vagina like you would a tampon without an applicator. It should sit a few inches below your cervix.
- Once the cup is in your vagina, rotate it. It will spring open to create an airtight seal that stops leaks.
- If inserted correctly, you shouldn’t feel your menstrual cup. You should also be able to move, jump, sit, stand, and do other everyday activities without your cup falling out.
- Wear the menstrual cup for 6 to 12 hours, depending on whether or not you have a heavy flow. This means you can use a cup for overnight protection. You should always remove your menstrual cup by the 12-hour mark. If it becomes full before then, you’ll have to empty it ahead of schedule to avoid leaks.
How to pick size
If you're under 30 years old and haven’t given birth- we recommend you to pick a size small. If you're over 30 or have given birth, which includes any full-term delivery, pick a size large.
